We're always looking for young, talented writers to write for us and contribute to our Your Say section.
 We want to hear what you think about global issues, things that are really getting to you and events you have been to. Become one of our website writers and we will give you guidance about what to write and help you edit it. Articles will appear regularly as Generation Why features.
What kind of stuff do we want articles about?
We’ll publish articles on the things you're passionate about - including global issues, ethical living and Oxfam's work - and we’ll give you ideas for features too. Articles could range from what you think about a campaign to a review of a club night.
